Banksy selling, by dwight on Feb 15, 2007 7:42:54 GMT 1, The other day I received a love is in the air that I bought. In transit it was bent in the middle. I was very upset. I have filed a claim and it looks like they are going to refund all my money and let me keep the print. My first thought was to sell the one for salvage and buy another one, but after I looked at it, I realized that it will look great framed reguardless of some minor scuffing. So in the end liking the image is more important than the value on down the road.

Third damaged print!!!!!!!!!!!!, by dwight on May 11, 2007 0:33:48 GMT 1, Still waiting on my replacement Eine Monsters print... I really hope this encourages POW to do a better job with packing. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy that POW is willing to provide replacements, but when it is due to poor packing that doesn't even stand up to expected adverse shipping conditions...

Purchasing from abroad.., by dwight on Feb 12, 2007 23:29:06 GMT 1, I know this a bit long winded and I apologize, but I wish I would have had this information before buying and shipping from overseas.
I'm glad someone started this thread as I've recently learned some valuable lessons that I wanted to share. First, I recently purchased a love is in the air on ebay. When shipping we used DHL and insured the print up to 1500gbp although I paid a little less than that. Shipping cost us about 75gbp. Upon receiving this item which was well packed in a more than adequate tube, I found it to be damaged. It had been crushed on an end like a paper cup and in the middle of the tube it was dented. I was very upset because the item had been clearly abused...(no small thing to have crushed this tube). When I began the paper work with DHL to make a claim, I soon realized that they are awful on these things. They've asked me to do multiple things that conflict with what they had previously requested. Anyhow, to continue, the declared value really isn't how much money you can claim. You can only be reimbursed for how much money you can prove was payed. If the item was a gift, the giver is supposed to produce an original receipt to prove its value. I'm still waiting to find the outcome of my claim which dhl said could take 4 weeks or longer! Meanwhile, I have worthless print and no help from DHL.
Having said this, DHL has safely delivered other prints and art, but this makes me think twice. Also, I considered using FED EX, but apparently they will not insure frameable works of art... Just be aware that proof of value is everything with DHL.

buying from unknown artists, by dwight on Jun 25, 2007 19:37:28 GMT 1, Just purchased a large canvas (500squid) a few months back by an artist who probably will never have any fame, but I like it better than all of my others..including my banksy prints... so if you like a piece, buy it..

Signed, numbered and ยฃ25, by dwight on Feb 12, 2007 23:15:49 GMT 1, Actually printing is quite important... Not to say it is more important than subject because you can obviously take a garbage image and print it nice...and the image may even look nice because of quality printing. However, a great image is held back by poor printing. It's similar to framing a great image.. a great print that is poorly framed can be held back a lot by poor presentation.
Printing is very important and in my opinion is just as important as a good image. Not to mention that the type and quality of printing has a lot to do with the lifespan longevity of the print.

My morons got damaged (pic), by dwight on May 1, 2007 0:23:37 GMT 1, A friend of mine got his morons today and the print alignment is piss poor. The numbers are only about half green where they should be because they were misaligned when it was printed. I suggested he send it back...I know that I would. Anybody else had this happen? It was so bad that it actually made the print look like a mess-up that should have been thrown out... is this what you mean?
Exactly how it was...since told me they're sending it back..

My morons got damaged (pic), by dwight on Apr 25, 2007 1:06:00 GMT 1, I think that they get damged on the corner like this... -the print isn't rolled straight which leaves corners exposed sticking out further -when the print shifts from end to end (because pow doesn't bother to put any padding on the ends), it hits that corner on the inside endcap and bends.

My morons got damaged (pic), by dwight on Apr 24, 2007 5:05:43 GMT 1, That was exactly how my monsters print was damaged. POW has been very cordial about replacing it, although they are still saying that Eine will get to it soon... Praying my morons isn't damaged...really don't want to have to send something else back.
